About eighty-two years before the birth of Christ an American Prophet Alma warned his people about the destruction that would happen to his people and their society when they start to ignore just law, that which was put in place by God Himself, which they called the laws of Mosiah (which was primarily based on the laws of Moses) and put in its place man made law. As Alma said:

And now behold, I say unto you, that the foundation of the destruction of this people is beginning to be laid by the unrighteousness of your lawyers and your judges.
